Snow day and slumber party!

The day after Christmas, it finally snowed!
So the day after that, we invited some of our best buddies over to build a snowman!
Bundled up, it's cold out there.

That smile has got to go, G. 
You drive me bonkers when I grab my new camera...on purpose I imagine.
I'm ready to build a snowman.
The kids on the other-hand, would rather make snow angels,
throw snowballs,
and simply just run/roll around in it.
Once I had him started, they were eager to assist.
Neighbor John was nice and gave us a couple sticks he had picked up in his yard.
We had mulch for hair and mouth, rocks for eyes, and some kind of nut or something for a nose.

It wasn't packing snow. This 'kid' snowman took effort. Plus the sun was beating down as you can see.
Next BIG snow...we are making a BIG snowman. A promise is a promise.
Ta-dahhhh!
You think the kids would take a picture with me?
Nooooooo :(
But they loved him. For a minute. 
Then they wanted to knock him down.
Momma said No.
The Snow Kid is staying for a little bit.
The yard needed a little shoveling before going in to warm up and head for food.
 While I am not impressed nor a fan of Chick-Fil-A, there is a new one in Perrysburg, and they have a playroom inside. Glassed in. With tables and benches around it. 

For that reason. And that reason alone. This is our second time in as many months.
(see that man in the background? He's watching his kid jump and slide right now.)

Our deal was you had to actually eat some deep fried chicken and french fries before going in.
 Don't let that fruit bowl fool you into thinking this was a nutritious stop.

But they do give books in kid meals versus a toy. 
That's something anyway...
 Back to out house and little more play.
We decided to have a slumber party!
Yippy!
Jammies on, kids. Let's make popcorn!

I poured two small dishes so they each had a turn.
Pressly is a rookie.
It's just SO exciting!!
Peter Pan and popcorn.
Perfect.
Getting a lil sleepy, but they would never admit it.
Out like lights within minutes.
What a fun filled day!
